Wisdom

God said: Solomon, I’m pleased that you asked for this. You could have asked to live a long time or to be rich. Or you could have asked for your enemies to be destroyed. Instead, you asked for wisdom to make right decisions. So I’ll make you wiser than anyone who has ever lived or ever will live. ~ 1 Kings 3:11-12 (CEV)

Jesus said: Anyone who hears and obeys these teachings of mine is like a wise person who built a house on solid rock. ~ Matthew 7:24 (CEV)

KEY IDEA:
God wants us to have wisdom.
PRAYER:
God, you are so solid -- so insightful. However, I don't place nearly so much emphasis on acquiring wisdom. That tells me that I'm not in harmony with you and your ways. So I want to be like Solomon and ask for wisdom above all else. I'm anticipating that my life will be well founded because of your generosity. Amen.
